Teams: Checking the status of your video camera functions

Issue/Question

• Can I check my camera status prior to a meeting in MS Teams?

Resolution

Yes, you can quickly check to see if your camera is functioning properly in MS Teams. To do this:

• Click on your Teams Profile icon.

You will see the Profile options menu.

• Manage Accounts

You will see the Settings menu.

• Click Devices.

You will see the Device settings menu.
